The numbers on the turret 1-6 were number of turns, not number of mils as I thought
1 turn= 5 mils
Even tho the turret says 6 it only turns 5 times, 25 mils total adjustment.
So ya I was confused. By what the 1-6 numbers meant.
I ended up putting a 20 moa base on. Might change the rings...
I ended up doing this last night, I had 10 mils of adjustment up remaining, which would probably be ok, but when I looked through the scope with it maxed the optical quality wasn't as good, and since I have a bunch of room to go down I ordered a 20 moa rail, that way I'll stay more in the middle...
Cool, thanks! I think I'm going to try it out as is and see if it sucks, I'll keep my eye out for a 20 moa rail and get some shipping quotes, Canada+covid sucks for getting stuff.
Yeah the cap comes off with 3 Allen bolts, I will just turn it so zero is zero and put it back on, my worry is that according to the horizontal lines on the turret I only have 2mils of adjustment up remaining (point of impact up for longer shots)
According to an online dope sheet calculator...
Hey, I'm a beginner target shooter, I have a Remington 700 SPS tactical in .308. it has a 20" target barrel and vortex viper 2-10x44 mrad scope. I'm currently able to easily shoot precisely out to 250 yards with a 200 yard zero (max distance at my local range)
Next weekend I'm planning to try...
